They told us that you had to meditate once in the morning and once in the evening. Yumping Yiminy! In the first place, how was I supposed to get up in the morning and then sit down and close my eyes and meditate after sleeping for twelve hours? I was perfectly willing to meditate once a day if it meant I would eventually attain cosmic consciousness, but twice a day at twenty minutes per session? Who the hell wants an “obligation” hanging over his head the moment he wakes up? It was called “pushups” in the army.
